Why do veterans support Trump? Do they really think he will change the republican party's policies? Trump like so many republicans was a draft dodger. Lots of men were, I've only met one in my life who was honest and admitted getting a exemption. And while the lower classes served, the upper classes hide. And face it folks, bringing back the draft would create more crying than a Dear John. When Trump beats his chest like some superman, I have to laugh, when he had the chance to serve he too hide. So why the support? And this question is about policy, not the usual equivalency apologetic rebuttal.

"Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home -but not for housing. They are strong for labor - but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor minimum wage - the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all - but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine - for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great blessing - but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They think American standard of living is a fine thing - so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it." Harry S. Truman
 
Interesting that no one commented - take note that liberals agree and abide with the 1st amendment and allow all voices, but none spoke. So then it stands, republicans do nothing for veterans. Case dismissed.


PS If anyone ever feels I have neglected their profound argument in any thread, please PM me, I'd love to check out your words.
 
Perhaps it is that "throw the first stone" thing?? Most of them probably didn't serve either...........

After what he said about McCain I can't see why any Vet would support a man like that to be commander & chief..

But you look hard enough you can find fools more than willing to suckUP to a rich dodger like him..

His personal attack on McCain is all one need to know about how he feels those that served while he sat around drinking & chasing girls..

I have had the great fortune to see some of Bud's friends apologize to him because he served and they took exemptions. Those men are still his very good friends to this day.

I do not understand veterans supporting the Republican party. Trump's campaign has already shown how they will treat vets, they delayed handing out the charity checks, they will be ineffective in getting the Republicans to do anything for the vets.

If Trump is President we may see lawsuits against Congress triple. :)

Because he wants to stop unnecessary wars that america's government wont allow the soldiers to win and go on forever.

That's why veterans support Trump.

You liberals want to tax the churches and use political correctness to silence free speech. You don't support the first amendment anymore than you support the second amendment.

You also reject the country's states rights document, the country's first important, and most important document.

This is hilarious, you try to stifle free speech all the time on here, telling people to shut up and not reply to you! You make me laugh!

McCain managed to get his multi million dollar plane shot down. Then he went to a prison and went through some torture. He's borderline hero in my book. If he would have been an infantry grunt, they would have probably (most likely) shot him. McCain is lucky he was a fly boy.

The heroes have their names etched on that wall in Washington DC. They're the only real heroes. I'm sure Trump would agree with me.

I never tell anybody to shut up on here except trolls like you. I never attack anybody on here unless I get attacked first .. like the way you did on the OJ Simpson thread out of nowhere.

You despise free speech and you hate what I have to say here and think I have no right to say it like your boyfriend thee dee does. He's been trolling me since my join date. The both of you use censorship to silence your enemies so don't sit there and lie through your teeth about me launching personal slander.

You didn't say anything about the disrespect from the trumpf?? Should he apologize or not??

It prob helped that his dad was a big shot, but maybe made it worse??

??Not sure why you would say that. Having been in the military you know full well he was following orders......

He didn't wake up & decide to go here or there to bomb ppl on his own......

Neither of us are McCain fans but he was there, time & place as a result of following orders, hard to fault the man for that........

No I don't think Trump should apologize because McCain didn't do anything heroic .. in Trump's opinion and actually my opinion. What McCain did was honorable, he fought honorably, but I wouldn't put the hero label on him too much. I think it's individual, some think he's a hero, some don't.

IMHO he should but we can agree to disagree......

I agree that being shot down does not make him a hero, no more than just serving somehow does but he went through a lot of shit & deserves much better than what he got from trumpf...Have a fun Saturday.........
 
Bill said:
Well trumpf will, trust me, he promised........ AAAhhhh I feel sorry for any of them that may have been captured, he only likes Vets that haven't been captured..

Those MIA's that have been listed that way for decades in my opinion only lived a brief moment after they were captured. Or they had some shitty job for them to do that Charlie didn't want to do himself then were discarded.

Could be....... Never gave that much thought.. Given the nature of the war I guess you would be better off getting caught by the reg NV military than vc...:dunno:
 
Today America is trading with Vietnam, I have seen shirts in Macy's made there. Kinda makes you shake your head.

Another issue that I find sorta amazing is the number of foreign cars with veterans stickers on them. It is probably just me, but I find it hard to understand how a person who has served his country in uniform now supports other nations as so many complain about outsourcing and jobs?
